Chapter 670 The scholar of the Ming Dynasty is respected, not only because of the high status of the scholar, but also because of some superstition.The ancients believed that those who read books were the stars of Wenqu in the sky and could not be offended.They regard the scholars as gods, and they respect them all, even the bandits and thieves respect them.Most of the robbers were born in a reckless manner, and they had a deep awe of the scholars, if there was a scholar who was willing to stay in the cottage and join the gang, it would be a matter of burning incense, and if the scholars were unwilling to stay, they would not be embarrassed, and they would be sent down the mountain respectfully.In case he offends the scholars, not to mention that the government does not agree, even his mother and father will not be able to pass this level, so they will have to be beaten to death with the soles of their shoes.Readers can't afford to mess with them.All of this has been labeled as readers, for example, experts in later generations have become experts, and professors have become beasts, this is not because the world is declining, nor is it that people's hearts are not ancient, it is purely because they are self-inflicted, because they speak for interest groups, in the current economic society, because those experts and professors have knowledge, culture, and prestige, so they are unscrupulous and black and white.Although the Ming Dynasty respects knowledge, the scholars deceive the common people as fools, and when these remarks that violate objective laws are like a pot of rat feces and a pot of soup.It is undeniable that the scholars of the Ming Dynasty are not all bad guys, there are still many people who have ideals and ambitions, and they do want to cultivate themselves and level the world, but there are too many people who eat people and don't do things.This class has been played badly, just like the experts of later generations, now they are speaking out, and the common people no longer recognize it, even if it is correct, there will be people who will question it.Because, unscrupulous experts and professors have overdrawn the credibility of this group.Chongzhen's focus has never been on these issues, and after he landed from Tianjin, he took Quan Xu with him."
Liaodong has a population of 3.3 million households, 14 million people?"
It is an indisputable fact that population represents power, and if Israel in later generations is not five or six million, but sixty or seventy million, then Israel can definitely develop into a superpower.It's a pity that there is no population, everything is a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water."
Your Majesty, exactly!"
Quan Xu already knew these figures, 14 million people are only the population of Liaodong, if Taiwan, Qiongzhou and Luzon are included, the population under Quan Xu's rule will be about 23 million, which is equivalent to the population of France at the same time.Chongzhen let out a long sigh, he didn't know what to say now.With the thoughts in his heart, just by taking a nap, Liaodong has miraculously developed, just like Jiannu in Liaodong, it is incredible.Although the current Liaodong has not shown harmfulness, the question is, who dares to guarantee that Liaodong will be the same as Jiannu?
Quan Xu smiled faintly and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Liaodong is not a slave, Liaodong is the Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty, the prerequisite, the cabinet must give Liaodong enough respect, the court needs food, steel, including silver, you can, the premise is enough respect!"
”To join Liaodong, you also need to take an oath.From the third year of Chongzhen to the fifth year of Chongzhen, at that time, the oath of joining Liaodong was: "Or I will faithfully serve His Majesty the Emperor, as well as the heirs and successors of the Marquis of Wuwei, and I will earnestly abide by the laws of Liaodong and fulfill my responsibilities as a citizen of Liaodong." ”However, now, the oath to join Liaodong has become: "I solemnly swear that I will support and defend the constitution and laws of Liaodong against all enemies at home and abroad."
I will sincerely swear allegiance to the government of the Eastern Liaoning Government.When the Hou Ye asks, I am willing to take up arms to defend Liaodong; When the Hou Ye asks, I will do non-war military services for the government of the Government Council; When Lord Hou asks, I will do important work for the country under the command of government officials......
"Although it is said in later generations that taking an oath is equivalent to farting, in this era, taking an oath still has a strong binding force.Chongzhen asked again: "Are there more than 3,000 schools in Liaodong?"
”"There should be, I really don't know how much, but I can look it up!"
Quan Xu naturally didn't tell the truth, although Liaodong is nominally a town, that is, a thousand households, at least one primary school must be built, this is just a regulation, in some places more than 1,000 households may not be able to build a school, but in many places, there is only one school for four or five thousand households.How many schools, does not represent the quality of education, for example, the first primary school in Jinzhou, as the earliest first primary school in Jinzhou, is in Chongzhen three years in September the first session began to enroll, the school covers an area of about 140 acres, there are 400 meters of standard track, basketball courts, football fields, table tennis courts, physical room, specimen room, library, indoor basketball room, fountain, and hall of fame, etc., now there are 87 classrooms, more than 5,600 students, 305 teaching staff.With the scale of the first primary school in Jinzhou, Liaodong, it is completely possible to kill the Guozijian of the Ming Dynasty in seconds, of course, this is only a primary school, and the quality of education is not comparable with the Guozijian, after all, the level is not the same.There are not only public primary schools in Jinzhou City, but also some private schools, in fact, Liaodong's audit requirements for running schools are not too harsh.However, there are also entrance exams in Liaodong, and they are also unified test papers and unified admission results.Taking middle school as an example, the best middle school in Liaodong is not the first state high school in Jinzhou, but the high school affiliated to Liaodong University.Taking last year as an example, there were a total of 8,058 students in the liberal arts and sciences in the middle school affiliated to Liaodong University, of whom 3,467 (nearly half) were admitted to Liaodong University, Liaodong University of Technology, Liaodong Military Academy, Liaodong Mining University, Liaodong Medical College, and Liaodong Party School.Compared with the Affiliated High School of Liaodong University, the quality of the school's hardware and classrooms is too high, and the whole school has a total of 22 reading rooms, with a total of more than 3,500 designed seats, and the library has a collection of more than 7.8 million books.When he heard more than 7.8 million copies, Chongzhen began to be sour again.I have to admit that compared with Liaodong, many places in Daming are lagging behind.He actually visited the shipyards in Liaodong, and also saw the train factory, as well as the steam engine textile factory, and he was sure that in the future, Liaodong would definitely leave the Ming Dynasty far behind.The political system of Liaodong has made Liaodong people very interested in donating, because the donated materials and money can be deducted from taxes, and they can also get a good reputation, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.In Liaodong, many schools, even primary schools have libraries, and some even have indoor basketball halls, and sports in Liaodong are also very developed.Quan Xu even had the idea of holding a national games in Daming, in fact, except for Liaodong, Taiwan, and even Luzon and Qiongzhou, where the sports training system is not perfect, the rest is in a state of ruin.The education of the Ming Dynasty was adopted by later generations, and even similar to the elite education of Europe and the United States, which tried to monopolize the elite education of knowledge, which could cultivate talents.However, for this kind of education for all in Liaodong, there is no comparison at all.How do you compare?
No matter how talented a person is, no matter how hard he works, can you guarantee that you are the first among a hundred people, a thousand?
What about 10,000 people, what about a million people?
What about three million people?
This is the true teaching of no class.Hearing this, Chongzhen's heart became even heavier.Compared with Liaodong, Daming not only lost the present, but also lost the future.When the noble children of the Ming Dynasty indulged in wine banquets, banquets, hunting, poetry meetings, and Qinglou all day long, the next generation of Liaodong was studying in the library, and they should have a better tomorrow, but they chose a different path when they should have learned, which will bring them a completely different life in the future.I don't know when it started, a poisonous chicken soup began to appear, saying that going to school is not the only way out, early employment and early development, of course, Lao Cheng is the generation that was misled.At that time, it was more difficult to take the high school entrance examination because there were four years less study time, and you could go through two to three years of technical secondary school or secondary school teacher study, and then join the work.More than 20 years ago, technical secondary school was a bit useful and a diploma, but now, what is a secondary school?
Admitted to university, no matter how bad the mix is, it is better than the secondary school in the middle age, this is the gap.The problem now in the Ming Dynasty is not one or two, nor one or two points, but all, although the state attaches great importance to education, officials around the country have listed education as one of the four major assessment indicators, and the same level as taxation.But the problem is that the way of education is starting to deviate.The essence of education is to educate people, in fact, the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty is to elect officials, as long as you pass the immediate can become an official, so at that time people were focused on the eight strands, only the eight strands of articles can knock on the door of the imperial examination.It's a pity that although the usefulness of the Bagu Wen is, it is not absolute, and the Bagu Wen in this era is like the application of the text of later generations, no matter how well an official's report is written, if it is a political achievement, it will not work.In fact, university graduates in Liaodong are not officials, but have the qualifications to become officials, and they also need to be trained in industrial party schools, have solid theoretical knowledge, and be proficient in general affairs.Industrial party members will definitely become officials, and Quan Xu's management and assessment of reserve officials are too strict.If you want to become an official, you must understand the law, and you don't need to read from the book, but at least you can understand what you can do and what you can't do.You must also understand the economy, otherwise you will not be able to become a palm seal officer.Daming is imagining the county officials too simply, in Quan Xu's view, 99% of the officials of the Ming Dynasty are unqualified, of course, the officials from the Industrial Party will give them the opportunity to make mistakes.Of course, mistakes of principle cannot be made, and if it is because of the problem of ability, it can be rebuilt, and more and more talents are being cultivated in Liaodong, but it is becoming more and more difficult to become officials.People who can mix like a fish in water in the Ming officialdom are almost unable to move an inch in Liaodong.
